Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

The darker and far-flung aspects of the story are icky and unnecessary. But the relationship between Clara and David is beautifully delineated.

Clara's Heart is just awful.

Goldberg is on top form, doing her Jamaican accent shtick.

The surprises may not come quite often enough for some, but at all times there is Goldberg's glowing performance to keep us fascinated, or a nice salty bit of humor, or a great little character riff by Harris that's completely endearing.

Buoyed by a beautifully measured star turn by Whoopi Goldberg and a smashing screen debut for young Neil Patrick Harris, Clara's Dream is a powerful, unabashedly sentimental drama.
